ACM has transitioned to a new authoring template. This new TeX template consolidates the previous eight individual ACM journal and proceedings templates. The templates are updated to the latest software versions, developed to enable accessibility features, and they use a new font set. Click the template image below for more information, and to get started.

The master templates for journals and conference proceedings are available below; to start from a sample paper which includes example text and content set out in one of the eight formats, please see the ACM - Official Sample Papers template gallery.

ACM has transitioned to a new authoring template. This new TeX template consolidates the previous eight individual ACM journal and proceedings templates. The templates are updated to the latest software versions, developed to enable accessibility features, and they use a new font set.
The new LaTeX package incorporates updated versions of the following ACM templates:
ACM Journals: ACM Small, ACM Large, ACM and TOG (also for SIGGRAPH authors publishing in TOG)
ACM proceedings templates: ACM Standard, SIGCHI, SIGCHI abstracts, and SIGPLAN
All journals use acmsmall with the following exceptions:
acmlarge - Large single column format, used for IMWUT, JOCCH, PACMPL, POMACS, TAP, PACMHCI
acmtog - Large double column format, used for TOG
Note: Most proceedings authors will use the "sigconf" proceedings template. If you are unsure which template variant to use, please request clarification from your event or publication contact.
Before using the 2017 ACM consolidated proceedings template, we strongly suggest that you read the TeX User Guide. Authors who plan to use their own packages should read the longer Implementation Guide. More detailed Instructions for Authors are found at http://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors.
It is important to provide the proper indexing information from the ACM Computing Classification System (CCS). Accurate semantic tagging provides a reader with quick content reference; facilitates the DL search for related literature; enables several DL topic functions such as aggregated SIG and journal coverage areas; and helps ACM promote your work in other online resources.
Once your conference proceedings submission is ready, you can use the “Submit to ACM” button at the top of the Overleaf editor bar to quickly download your files. Please then refer to the submission guidelines in the relevant call-for-papers or on the event website for information on where to submit.
